Ethernet Communication
The classifier is compatible with either 10 or 100 MBps systems. The green
LED indicates that the network is connected. The yellow LED indicates
activity on the network cable. The instrument cannot be operated using
power-over-Ethernet (POE).
If using the Ethernet connection, the classifier can be set up in various
configurations:
 Direct connection to PC using “crossover” Ethernet cable.
 Connection to PC via Ethernet switch using standard Ethernet cable
between PC and switch, as well as between switch and classifier.
 Connection to a local area network (LAN) using standard
Ethernet cable.
Aerosol Instrument Manager software may lose connection with the
classifier if your network is too busy or the network connection is slow. To
bridge long distances via Internet, the use of a dedicated PC on site
(running Aerosol Instrument Manager software) is recommended. The PC
running Aerosol Instrument Manager software can be accessed via virtual
private network (VPN) and remote desktop.
Note: Newer routers may help reduce susceptibility to broadcast storms.
The IP address of the classifier can be set from the instrument display
under Setup->Device->Communication. See Chapter 5 for details.
